- 9. | Add your presentation title here or delete this field © kreuzwerker 2023 9 ★ Resource optimization ★ Experimentation to foster continuous improvements ★ Best fitting technologies in use for all aspects of the application (data access patterns, storage choices etc) ★ Consistent user experience − Manual load testing, prone to inaccuracies − Suboptimal resource utilization − Experimentation is crippled - it becomes a chore − Outdated technologies − Inconsistent user experiences Performance Efficiency Without IAC This is the grandfather of “if it works, don’t touch it” culture
- 10. | Add your presentation title here or delete this field © kreuzwerker 2023 10 ★ Automated security checks ★ Compliance enforcement ★ Rapid response to security incidents ★ Data, environment, network are protected ★ Anticipate security events − Manual security assessments, prone to oversights − Lack of compliance enforcement − Delayed response to security incidents − Relaxed protection due to manual access to resources Security Without IAC Everyone has Admin access since we need to do stuff on there 🥹 🎪🎪🎪
- 11. | Add your presentation title here or delete this field © kreuzwerker 2023 11 ★ Dynamic resource scaling based on demand ★ Efficient resource utilization ★ Cost savings through automation ★ Optimizing over time − Inefficient resource usage - optimizing becomes difficult − Inconsistent tagging of resources result in wrong overview of costs and usage − Higher operational costs Cost Optimization Without IAC We can’t shut it down because setting it up again is tedious 😪 💸💸💸
- 12. | Add your presentation title here or delete this field © kreuzwerker 2023 12 ★ Automated failover mechanisms ★ Redundancy configurations ★ Highly available architecture ★ Easy rollbacks and extensive testing − Manual failover, prone to errors (also lot of stress for IT) − Over-provisioned resources − Increased downtime risk - human factor Reliability Without IAC If there is a disaster, I can only shut down my laptop and hope AWS fixes it ASAP 🥹 👀
- 13. | Add your presentation title here or delete this field © kreuzwerker 2023 13 ★ Automated, streamlined processes ★ Efficient workflows ★ Reduced manual errors − Manual, time-consuming tasks − Increased likelihood of errors − Lack of consistency Operational Excellence Without IAC My colleague knows how everything works, he’s the one that set it up 🌚 🌝🌝🌝
- 14. | Add your presentation title here or delete this field © kreuzwerker 2023 14 ★ Dynamic resource allocation, minimizing environmental impact ★ Energy-efficient configurations ★ Actively shifting to more sustainable solutions as they become available − Sustainability is impossible in the midst of all that chaos − Higher environmental footprint Sustainability Without IAC 🥹
